CHERRY CROFT.
Dear Mr Stoddart
It was a great pleasure to
me to receive your letter and
I shall certainly call and see
you when I am in the city
But I am over head and ears
on a novel that is to be done
by August first and do not ex-
pect to leave it a day until
it is completed But what is
to hinder Dorothy & you travelling
up to Cornwall some day. I
would like to talk to you and
see your face again. I often
think of you not only when
"The Era" comes but at other
times. I hope if I am in
New York this winter to see
a good deal of you. I have
heard much of the beauty
of your daughter Dorothy &
I doubt not she is as good as
she is fair. I am going to
write Taylor & so to send her a
copy of my last work.
Your Friend Truly
Amelia E Barr
May 6th 1913.
